Baudelaire13, January 21st, Larklight and Starcross by Philip Reeve
These two books document the adventures of a boy name Arthur 'Art' Mumby, his sister, Myrtle, a boy pirate captain name Jack Havock, and a whole cast of strange characters. These stories belong to a subgenre of Science Fiction called "Steampunk", which combines science Fiction with old-fashioned steam technology. Larklight and Starcross, which are typical examples of "Steampunk", take place in Victorian England, when The Queen rules much of the known universe, and space pigs transport themselves, by, um, passing gas.

This is about a boy named James Choke joining a kid's brance of MI5's. (Spies) This is humourous and adventureous.
josephines December 6th: Uglies by Scott Westerfield
Uglies is the first part in the series by Scott Westerfield. It is set in the future, a time when an operation seems to solve all problems that we have now. At 16, "uglies" get an operation that will turn them into a fantastically beautiful and carefree "pretty". Somehow, it is found out that the operation not only turns you pretty but affects you in a way that you might not want to be changed in. A book with a huge range of topics, Uglies is a rewarding read.
leox December 5th: The Supernaturalist by Eoin Colfer
By the author of the Artemis Fowl series, another wild ride of advanced tech and aliens. If you enjoyed the Artemis Fowl series, this would be a very enjoyable read
leonj, Dec. 5th, Artemis Fowl, Eoin Colfer.
The Artemis Fowl series is just perfect for sci fi lovers. It tells about a boy genius criminal mastermind. He first finds out about a race of fairies, then goes off into a wild adventure from under seige, to the arctic, to even saving the fairy race.

The Artemis Fowl series (5 books + 1 book of theArtemis Fowl Files= total six books) are amazing books written by Eion Colfer. But don't be fooled by all the technology "stuff" in the content. These books are supposed to be in the "fantacy" section. All six books can be found in the library.
